1- Click on your photo in Flickr and then on the share arrow at bottom-right 2- Select the BBCode tab, then the "Medium (800x600)" option from the drop-down tab and copy (ctrl-C on Windows) the url. 3- Paste the url in your post. I typically also get rid of all the text after the first url html tags, otherwise you get some additional links from Flickr. Here are your photos:   |

thank you!
I nearly wrecked the van on the way to work that morning going down 211 from Warrenton toward Sperryville. You get glimpses of the Blue Ridge as you head further west, but from Amissville onward, they the mountains begin to dominate the skyline. At one point, you get a good glimpse of everything from Old Rag in the south to beyond Pass Mountain toward the north. That morning there was such a sharp contrast between the dark trees and hills in the foreground, brilliant snow covered peaks, and dark gray clouds above, it made the Blue Ridge look much larger than it really is.
I had to wait until I was near Washington Va, and took Tiger Valley Rd down to a farm where I had a really good view of the entire range. That first photo just makes me cold! It would have been interesting to be standing on top of that mountain with the wind shredding the clouds.
My only gripe with the photos are - I did not check my camera settings before starting to shoot. I had left it on auto ISO and Program mode, so the conditions kicked my ISO up to 3200, which is high for Micro Four Thirds. Darktable handled most of the noise well, but zooming in - the trees on the mountain look kinda 'crunchy'. I'll mess with it more later. A new release of Darktable comes out next week.
Nevertheless, I really like the whole series I took. I will post others here later.
